    ...I love this song:

    Not deep.

    Commercial-sounding and formulaic.

    Easily dismissed, critically.

    Also:

    Performance perfection.

    Just a fuckin' great song.

    Turn it up.

    Don't think Marc Cohn did much after that, either.

    For years I thought he sang "ten feet off a beal".
    Anytime the song came on all I was concerned about was trying to figure out what the hell a beal was.

    What does he sing then? I always thought it was another american word for pavement or something.

    Off of Beal .
    Beal is a famous street in Memphis.

    It thought it was a beam or something.

    It's the famous "strip" in Memphis.
